Dr. Nagel read the analysis of P uccini's
opera "Madam Butterfly," and he even
excelled bis p ast r ecitals in the masterly

American-Japanese c la ssic he mi ngled

beau ty, cla rity. range, and resonance,
which combined with a delig htful French

The score was a very heavy one but per­haps

she poured out h er mother .heart love
in her lullaby song to her baby boy.
The other roles were credita bly sung
by the a s.sist ing arti st, but did not afford
them full opportunity to di splay their

the part Suzuki and her "Duet of the
